Originally, Bai Xiaowen also wanted to use gentle means to communicate with Gongsun and use their power to trace the clue of the dragon pattern gold box.
However, Bai Xiaowen himself rejected the idea - Gongsun was still too much in the way. Their natural preparedness for yuan easily hindered Bai Xiaowen''s plan.
Through understanding the situation, Gongsun Du had no deep foundation in Liaodong at this time. Bai Xiaowen took the opportunity of this Hongmen banquet to kill Gongsun Du, the leader, and then took advantage of Yuan''s tiger skin. Gongsun''s family, which had no deep foundation, naturally collapsed.
Asking Gongsun to help him investigate the clues, even if he has the identity of Youzhou assassin, it is equivalent to scratching the surface.
It is more convenient and faster than now that Bai Xiaowen''s decree is unimpeded in Xiangping city and directly mobilizes the power of the government to make an all-out investigation.
Wang Lie''s suggestions and suggestions were modestly adopted by Bai Xiaowen. The old long history, who has been frustrated for half his life, has soared in favor of Bai Xiaowen and has regarded him as a Ming Lord who can be entrusted.
Bai Xiaowen then ordered Wang lie to write a list of talents, which was posted and hung in the four counties and cities of Liaodong.
Wang Lie personally recommended a famous scholar: "young master, I have a friend named Bing yuan, who is from Beihai county and is famous for his integrity. Later, the yellow scarf thieves troubled the Central Plains, and Bing yuan moved his family to Liaodong to avoid disaster. Why don''t you recruit this man?"
In the Three Kingdoms period, there was no imperial examination, and the nine grade Zhongzheng system had not yet been born. The "examination" system handed down from the Han Dynasty was used to select and appoint officials.
Recommendation is almost the most basic way to appoint talents - for example, Xun Yu recommended Xi Zhicai to Cao Cao and then Guo Jia, all of which have been reused.
Therefore, scholars in the Three Kingdoms period paid special attention to their reputation. Most people regarded the word filial piety and righteousness as more important than life.
Needless to say, for the sake of friends, celebrities of the three countries can spend a lot of money or even throw away their homes and businesses.
At this time, Wang Lie received the attention of the "Ming Lord" and recommended his friends, which is a basic operation.
Bai Xiaowen said, "I''ve heard Bing yuan''s name for a long time, and I''d love to see him." he immediately issued a warrant to recruit Bing yuan with gold and silk gifts.
"Wang Changshi has talent and virtue. It''s a waste of talent to be a long Shi Tai. I''ll report to my father and ask you to be the governor of Xiangping. Before the appointment is issued, manage Xiangping affairs for the time being. What do you think?"
Bai Xiaowen asked.
Wang Lie did not refuse, bowed down and said, "I will not bear the childe''s trust."
After appointing Wang lie, Bai Xiaowen took Yan Rou to inspect the Xiangping Treasury.
Gongsundu''s reserves of gold, silver, grain and cloth were about 30000 yuan.
Bai Xiaowen was a little disappointed with the harvest of Xiangping Treasury because of the generous support of his cheap brother-in-law Zhen Yan. In his opinion, Gongsun Du, a Duke of Liaodong, should have more than this savings?
However, the fact is that Bai Xiaowen has no choice - the four counties in Liaodong are barren, Gongsun Du has not occupied for a long time, and it''s good to have 30000 yuan of money and food.
"General Yan."
Bai Xiaowen pulled Yan Rou and whispered, "next, the troops and horses of Youzhou headquarters are coming."
"Yes." Yan Rou was a little confused and could only nod.
This is obvious. Now that Gongsun Du is dead, the four counties in Liaodong will become the territory of yuan family. As the governor of Youzhou, Bai Xiaowen must dispatch Youzhou people and horses, such as 20000 people under Jiao touch and Zhang Nan, to occupy the county cities of the four counties, replace the original Gongsun Du people and horses and reorganize them.
"I will let Zhao Rongchang know about the capture of Liaodong," Bai Xiaowen continued.
"Yes." Yan Rou nodded again, still confused. Aren''t these all basic operations? Why did the second childe solemnly explain?
Bai Xiaowen coughed and began to say the key points:
"The money and grain will be delivered to Youzhou government treasury."
"Yes." Yan Rou said with a fierce fist, "please rest assured. Rou will not fail to fulfill the childe''s trust and escort the 30000 yuan of money and grain to Youzhou mansion!"
“……”
Bai Xiaowen is a little speechless. What are you anxious to say!
After coughing heavily, Bai Xiaowen said, "Liaodong is poor, and the Treasury can''t make ends meet. How can there be a surplus of 30000 Guan? It''s clear that there is only 10000 Guan. General Yan, don''t talk nonsense!"
Yan Rou was stunned, and then looked at Bai Xiaowen with incredible eyes. He''s a little clear about the doorway.
Dare you feel that the second childe yuan wants to embezzle the extra 20000 Guan himself?
incorrect! Young master yuan wants to use this money to train his own troops!
Yan Rou thought of Bai Xiaowen picking out 600 fierce soldiers from his department, and her heart suddenly brightened.
However, after understanding, Yan Rou was even more shocked.
What does it mean that the second childe yuan wants to train troops by himself?
Do you think the people in Youzhou headquarters are not easy to use?
Want a soldier who belongs to himself and only listens to his orders?
Looking at Bai Xiaowen''s smiling expression, Yan Rou soon woke up.
[I''m afraid the second childe is preparing for seizing his legitimate rights...]
With Yan Rou''s vision, it''s smart to think of seizing the line. He didn''t know that Bai Xiaowen''s "ambition" was much bigger than he thought.
Now the problem in front of Yan Rou is two words: stand in line.
He must make a choice now.
Help the second childe keep secrets, including the secret of embezzling 20000 yuan of money and food for military training. Yan Rou needs to stand in the second childe''s camp and become his confidant!
Just when Yan Rou hesitated, Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "general Yan, this war is hard. I can give you two thousand yuan as a reward for your soldiers... What''s up? What''s your consideration?"
Yan Rou quickly made up her mind.
[the courage and strength shown by the second childe in this battle, as well as the subsequent means to appease officials and deliver letters to the four counties, fully meet the standard of Ming Lord in my heart.]
[these two thousand passes are meant to attract me!]
[the second childe has the heart to attract. This is a rare opportunity. Otherwise, when can I get out of my old Department of Liu Yu?]
[if you refuse the second childe... Think about the end of Gongsun Du?]
After Yan Rou''s crazy self strategy, he felt that he had figured it out. He immediately knelt down and bowed down:
"Since then, Mr. Xi is my lord Yan rou. I will be loyal and do my best for him and go through fire and water!"
[what is this operation?]
Bai Xiaowen is a little stunned. He just wants Yan Rou to help cover up the amount of money and food, so as to fill his own pocket. Therefore, he doesn''t hesitate to give Yan Rou a sealing fee.
What the hell is Yan Rou taking refuge in?
Bai Xiaowen, no matter how clever he is, can''t imagine Yan Rou''s self strategy. He fell into meditation.
[could it be that I have awakened some amazing attributes. From then on, when the tiger body shakes and the king''s domineering spirit breaks out, there will be little brothers who will bow down? This is the treatment that only a handful of camp leaders such as Cao Cao and Liu Bei deserve.]
However, Bai Xiaowen reacted quickly. After meditating for 0.1 seconds, he put on a happy face and helped Yan Rou up.
"Good, great! Yuan Xi won general Yan''s victory over the three armies!"
